Subject: Journey TO Yellowstone
Subject: Journey TO Yellowstone
The filmmaker meticulously documents his journey. The footage is a great slice of Americana in 1938. Included are scenes from the Badlands, the Black Hills, a reptile garden, and an encounter with Native Americans. Historic footage of Mt. Rushmore (Teddy Roosevelt is "in progress) is shown. Don't miss this one. 5 stars.
